Re: The Exposure Tournament
Auriel DEEDS while slaying undeads in the Halls of Dead. Ironic she died to a pack of skellies while poison just like Snave.
I won't quit now. Might as well re-enter. I've two Entry ideas. 1) Throw Barbarian or 2) Spear Amazon. Since I cannot make up my mind I'll play both. Update will include info on both or just one.

Re: The Exposure Tournament
My first SP tourney. I'm going with a Barb named Wulfgar. Not sure what spec i'm going to go, right now I only have 1 point in howl that's it. He is level 12 and just cleared the Burial Grounds, Crypt and Mausoleum.
Found a 6 Enh Dam/20 Psn Jewel right outside of town. Then I got a couple of Chipped Topaz and put them in a helm. My best find is the Hands of Broc gloves.

Will update properly later but nevermore has beat the council, mephisto and izual, had levelled to thirty, and the flames are dropping. Killing has slowed somewhat till now as he hasn't boosted an attack skill for a while, but now geddon is here that should change!
Rocking a leaf staff made with a ral saved from the countess, with only 1 point in geddon the fire damage is already nearly equal his physical damage! That seems promising

Re: The Exposure Tournament
After early act 3 and getting to level 30, Running scared is progressing nicely. The killing speed has gone through the roof! I keep checking my message log to make sure its still on p/8! Nothing too eventful happened in act 3, drops were poor, but it went quickly, had a rare circlet that game me points MDR plus my nagel made magic less threatening, even with only 30% fire resist hydras didn't even do damage. Meph was fun (moated of coarse) starting to like Hydra, its not real powerful yet, but it gets the job done in certain situations. He thought it would be funny to drop a single unique:Stealclash
Act 4 was a breeze, Got to enjoy breaking some windows :cloud9: Even some misplaced windows too.
Diablo was pretty easy, I put a 2h sword on just for style (or the fact that it had fire resistance on it) I staticed him down to about a quarter life and then finished the job with orb. And the drop: :cloud9:
That staff is amazing! It has it all: skill,mana,life,FCR,resist all, and something i never noticed before: 15 MDR!
Now I'm not really sure that i want to go with an insight. Equipping that gave me the freedom to get my MF up to 184, where it was at 130ish before, and now I have perfect resists too. Looking forward to act 5 with huge experience and maybe some more good finds.

Re: The Exposure Tournament
If I were you I'd take that map seed up, because this is single pass. I'd like to come back there and check if that shrine near by is a monster shrine. If not S&E and repeat. When it is I'd kill al the monsters from the level and then click the shrine. Why? I'd like to see how an evil force is upped into an unique monster.

Re: The Exposure Tournament
This is slow going. Still unable to find a decent damage bow, despite using all my chippies to re-roll one and spending a big chunk of cash gambling them. Hopefully the re-rolling will pay off eventually, and I'll be able to socket a Nef in a bow with useful damage. I've found that the key to my survival has been life replensih. I have a total of 10, which is enough to prevent me having to constantly skull red potions. If I could just manage some leech as well.

Re: The Exposure Tournament
I've no clue how I'm going to handle this tournament. Seems all my prefered toons uses a shield. So basically I'm stumped on how to clear the early game levels.
Currently running two toons, neither far enough to warrant an entry right now. Just depressed over the lack of success. Even though I'm experience player.

Scepter and Javelins?
And then maybe a Trident when you have the strength for it?

Re: The Exposure Tournament
Wulfgar the Barbarian is now level 16. I played him all the way until level 12 with only 1 pt in howl because I wasn't sure on a build. I'm going to try and follow Night Fish's HC Berserker guide.
His best finds so far a the Hands of Broc, 6% Enh Dam and 20 Psn Jewel, and a very cool rare ring. I have managed to scrape together enough chip topazes for 2 in a helm and 3 in my armor. He is using 2 scepters with elemental damage.

@Krazy_Solo. R.I.P good friend
. Auriel shall be remembered!
Dorian began his journey into the deserts on a rather sour note. What a nice shrine to encounter when everything is dead
. Hah, sometimes you just got to just sit back and laugh at this game.
From level 24, Dorian finally said good bye to Holy Fire, which he has effectively been utilizing since from the tender age of 6. I already had a good investment into Resist Lightning (vengeance synergy), which was only growing with each level gained (currently level 9).
In the Far Oasis, Dorian managed to find this rather tasty sword. Not bad at all! It hits hard, however, I much prefer the speed of the “Steel” Claymore, which Dorian has been using since early in the Act. I placed the newly found sword on switch for situations where Vengeance was more suited than Zeal, such as vs Stone Skin bosses. Dorian could hit very strong with that sword using Vengeance (roughly 200-450, coupled with Holy Shock), however without a sufficient source of mana leech, Zeal is still our preferred method of attack.
Before we knew it, everything was lying still and the air was silent, It was time......time to face the bug!
I lowered the players setting down to 5 in respect of the challenger I was about to face (usually I face Duriel at p/8 if I am confident enough). Given I am still using 2 pieces of the Arctic set, including the belt (only 2 slots), I loaded my inventory with healing potions + thawing potions. We entered the chamber and charged the slug. My initial plan was to initiate OW with “Steel” and switch to my rare Claymore and use Vengeance. Lets just say that wasn’t the best option. Being chilled + using a single attack move with a fairly slow weapon = constantly put into hit recovery. Ok....so much for that plan! Back to Zealing with “Steel” I think :thumbup:. Ahh! Its working! Slowly but surely Duriel’s life was beginning to drain at a rather surprising pace. I had my inventory open the whole fight, constantly shoving healing pots down Dorian’s throat. I’m surprised he didn’t choke at the rate I was making him chug them! It was well worth it though, as the slug was slain. YAY!
Onwards to Act 3!
S/U’s for the Act: Cathan’s Mesh, Hsarus’ Iron Stay, Isenhart’s Lightbrand, Angelic Sickle, Angelic Mantle, Isenheart’s Horn x2, Nokozan Relic, Civerb’s Ward
Interesting to note: I have found 14 S/U's and only one has been a unique :whistling:. At least it might come in handy! Fighting Diablo rings a bell or two :smug:.

Re: The Exposure Tournament
Morathi, that is a good haul on the set items found. I'm not far behind you (sitting at the Far Oasis WP) and have found 1) The Gnasher, and 2) Cathan's Seal (ring). That's it! Killed every monster in the game through that point too.

Re: The Exposure Tournament
Finally things go faster
. Still full clears /p8, no great drop though. The only great improvement was imbued bone wand - nice damage boost and it at least partially helped with mana issue. I was afraid if it is good idea to use this quest reward so soon, but then I decided that yes (as usually I end with imbue rewards unused), and it really paid off.
Bone Spear is really powerful attack for now and bone armor helps to tank a bit. I'm curious how things will go later in game (and I hope I will have a chance to check it). I plan to play full clears /p8 as long as possible, but when I see things are tough, I will lower players settings, I'm not that brave

Re: The Exposure Tournament
Umbriel did cows on /p5, and sorting through the stuff they dropped took much longer than actually killing them. 2 drops of note from cows -- Death's Sash, with its unupgradable 2 potion rows and CBF, and a Dol rune.
She set out in nightmare very carefully, since -19% cold res isn't very good. Things went pretty smoothly, but every once in awhile, she'd have an NDE, usually to a boss archer pack. Coldcrow provided one such NDE, as she was both cold and lightning enchanted. I don't know if she had other mods, because it wasn't safe to look until after she was dead.
Her CtH is pretty bad, so she's planning on dumping a whole bunch of Eth runes in a repeating xbow soon. Her level of mana leech is not enough to keep her from using potions anymore, but it isn't too bad.
Countess dropped an Eth and a Nef, which is worse than what she dropped in Normal.
Venom Ward dropped somewhere in the Pits, I think, and will see use against Andy. Her cold res has improved to +12%, which is nice, but not nice enough. She tried making a couple of crafted rings, neither of which were impressive or had any resists at all. Most of her resistance charms are lightning, so she actually has max lightning resist already, but nothing else is higher than 30%.
She was initially going to go without CoS, MB, or DS, but she's starting to reconsider, as the archers are already pretty rough sometimes. My normal strategy with this type of character is to let the shadow and merc tank some arrows and come in from the side, which is much less useful strategy without the minions.

Re: The Exposure Tournament
Running Scared has torn through act 5. Hydra and FM/Hydra/CM are all at level 5 and orb is now 2 points from maxed. Nothing too eventful difficulty wise, or drop wise for that matter. Found my second Nagel ring, worse than the first at 16%, ughhh. But that gives me a total of 21 points MDR, which is really fun! I can stand in catapult blasts, Infernos, fireballs, etc and my life won’t budge. Have had really bad luck with topazes however, couldn’t even scrape up 3 Ptopaz before baal, but I still had 218 MF when I killed him. He didn’t give anything useful however, and cows weren’t any help either. I should be able to keep my same gear and just add some charms back for NM to keep my resists near perfect, so I am expecting some good drops soon.
I did find 2 AMN, 2 SOL, and 3 DOL in act 5. So I could easily make an insight or spirit, but the stats just don’t compare to my staff, so unless I find a staff with perfect + skills I don’t plan on making an insight.

Re: The Exposure Tournament
Started on Gorm, the WW barb the other day. Going to pray I can find a decent weapon. So far he's killing everything in about two hits, fast going right now. Found a Deathspade, keeping it on switch along with a CTC amp sabre. About to tackle the Inner Cloister and Andy.

I hate extra fast Goat men types. Deeds to Boner in the Barracks before he even found the Smith.
EDIT: I feel so foolish now: Why didn't I use Terror? Must make him again, but maybe as a jailer.
I might join again, but then again I may not.

Re: The Exposure Tournament
Alas, TheLoner is dead due to a moment of carelessness. He had slain Baal and the Cow King and was on his way into the underground passage in NM. For some reason he spaced out and left vigor on and ran headlong into a bosspack of extra strong/FE carvers. He chugged purples, but couldn't figure out why they were so fast until it was too late. "Oh well", he thought, "you can't be embarrassed when you're dead..." He had recently found a Io rune (Crypt) and was looking forward to making 'Black'. He will be missed.
:tombstone:[Highlight]DEEDS:TheLoner, Decomposing Frost Zealot, lvl48, NM Underground Passage, 148points[/highlight]:tombstone:
So, with TheLoner's demise I started what will probably be a more difficult, but durable and interactive character, Scaven, a trash-talking, obsessive-horking frenzy barb. He has completed acts 1 and 2, although much more slowly than TheLoner did. His obsessiveness netted him an astounding 88 chippies in act 1 alone. By early act 2 he had made a 'steel' flail, and rolled a 38ed/1-13lightning/2flawedskull flail in the cube. He double-swung those until he got his first point in frenzy. He also found the arctic belt and armor. It was a tradeoff to use the belt with its limited space, but the mf and resists seemed to be worth it. He spent some time gambling in act 2 and actually gambled gorefoot boots! Considering they have a barb only staffmod, they are not that great and were only used until some 25 mf blues were bought. He was having no luck finding a barb helm to put topazes in and was growing tired of his 2chiptopaz skull cap, so he splurged and gambled circlets until he got a decent one:50poison/36lightres/75edef. Duriel went down easily thanks to a saved combat shrine close to the chamber. Thanks for the stamina charm, jerk! Well, I guess that green full helm might be handy.
Total S/U's so far:
Arctic Furs
Arctic Binding
Berserkers Headgear x2
Death's Guard
Isenhart's Horns
Isenhart's Lightbrand
Axe of Fechmar
Skewer of Krintiz x2
Stormguild
Gorefoot
Shadowfang
[highlight]Scaven, Trash-Talking Frenzy Horker, lvl28, Kurast Docks, 71points[/highlight]
